The Underneath by Kathi Appelt

The Underneath is a very touching, poetic story. When Calico Mama hears a song, a song that perfectly describes the way she is feeling, she follows it. The songs source, a bloodhound named Ranger, belongs to Gar-Face. Calico Mama is going to have kittens, so she must hide them from Gar-Face if she stays with Ranger. Gar-Face would use them as Alligator bait if he found them. He won't though, if they stay in the Underneath. One day, however, the temptation grows just a bit too great...
